Boats not equipped with the automatic fire
extinguisher option are equipped with a fire
extinguisher discharge port. In the event of a fire,
the access plate on the starboard side of the engine
compartment can be removed to allow the operator
to discharge a fire extinguisher into the engine
compartment without having to open the engine box.
Do not open the engine compartment immediately!
This feeds oxygen to the fire and flashback could
occur.
IF A FIRE OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN
ALL ENGINES, POWERED VENTILATION,
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND EXTINGUISH ALL
SMOKING MATERIALS. DO NOT IMMEDIATELY
OPEN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT!! THIS
FEEDS OXYGEN TO THE FIRE AND FLASHBACK
COULD OCCUR.
